On the 29th of November 2007 I gave a talk to the York University Maths Society on my hero Tom Lehrer. This is me rehearsing the talk, it's not perfect at all, but it went ok on the night.

The bad sound is due to Vista not being able to record my microphone. It will never change now, it is what it is.

  • Other places where comedy and nerddom overlap:

    xkcd: a web comic

    Monty Python

    The Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy (books, radio show, T.V. show) and others of Douglas Adams' works

    Dilbert

    Demitri Martin

    They Might Be Giants

    various scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and science-fiction authors

  • I agree with this list!

  • Did you do the animation for "Poisoning Pigeons"? Simple but quite effective and funny. :)

  • No, animations are stolen and worse uncredited. They're easy to find through any search of Tom Lehrer.

  • You should improve the sound!

  • Blame Vista for not being able to record my microphone.
